Just saw a rock fall across the sky
02/19/10 | Vanity

I've seen meteors before, but this was a rock falling. It was not ablaze like a meteor entering the atmosphere. It was headed east across Pennsylvania. It was perhaps a mile or so above me. From my vantage point it appeared at least a few meters across (judging from the distance). Guessing it would fall into the Atlantic.

The shape was irregular, somewhat round. Looked brownish-gray.

How did you see a rock, not ablaze and a mile up, at 10:30 PM? It’s dark.

I have all of the YT videos of the live performances — in the sequence.

It is a crime it isn’t coming the the USA.

My ex-wife was flying through the atmosphere? She had her broom, right?

I know I’m going to regret this post, but thought it was too cool not to report. Still haven’t found any corroborating info. Anybody know where I could report this officially?

How did you see a non-flaming rock in the sky at night? You sure you just didn’t have a large floater in your eye?

Probably a satellite/space station.... Once you know how to look for them you can see several in one evening. Not as freaky as an irridium flash though.

Timeless IMHO — have you seen the live performances? Note for note the original but fuller... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W8JLqsbK5V0
